NEET Physics Magnetic Properties of Materials Assertion Reason Question

Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Medium-Class 12

Assertion (A): The magnetic field inside a solenoid filled with a material having non-zero magnetisation is greater than that inside an empty solenoid. | Reason (R): The field contributed by the material core is proportional to its magnetisation.

A

Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

B

Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.

C

A is true but R is false.

D

A is false.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The field inside a solenoid with a material having non-zero magnetisation increases due to the additional field Bm, which is proportional to the magnetisation M of the material. This explains why the internal field is greater than when the solenoid is empty.
